Many thanks Amin. I replied today!
gobbledegeekMemberHi Amin
What is the current status of this plugin? May I also test it out? This might be the solution I have been looking for….
Regards
Gobbledegeek
gobbledegeekMemberDeveloper says just generate a random one and I can pass details on. Please email with quote. Thanks.
gobbledegeekMemberQuote:You just need to tell me what your key generation algorithm will be so it can be scripted. I will then be able to tell you how you can hook it with eStore..
Sorry, I should have asked if you are still willing to script this and show me how to ‘hook it up’, not actually do it for me…..although we might be able to work something out.
gobbledegeekMemberYes, I since reread I understood this.
Going back to your previous response, you would be able to implement something if I simply supplied the algorithm? The software developer keeps telling me any algo will do?????
gobbledegeekMemberThe problem I am having is that the developer insists that he doesn’t need to give me one. He thinks all the work in securing his software should be coming from my end i.e. generating keys.
From what I have had the time and patience to read and understand, one might be able to integrate something like this:

Would you be able to do this if I purchase it?
Maybe I am looking at this in too much detail. Please help.
gobbledegeekMemberHmmm….given that I simply knock up designs for the developer to code, I’m as lost as a blind sock stranded on the dark side of the moon, with only small chalk arrows to guide me.
Is there an ‘Idiot’s Guide’ to the whole process from the moment the software prompts the user to purchase a key? If not, if you are inclined and have a minute, would you possibly run through the process in laymen’s terms for me? I would really appreciate it.
gobbledegeekMemberDo you mean like this?

gobbledegeekMemberAmin, that sounds spot on. I’ll have a look for something as I’m only a designer.
gobbledegeekMemberHow about the delivery of a digital key based on customer’s Mac address or IP?
Customer downloads the trial, after a month he’s prompted to purchase whereby a unique key is generated, based on Mac code which unlocks the software and restrict it to that machine.
gobbledegeekMemberCan anyone offer recommendations for preventing a paying customer from passing a software download on the others?
